Zusatztext “Wesley Chu is my hero… he has to be the coolest science fiction writer in the world.” –  Lavie Tidhar , World Fantasy Award winning author of  Osama “Pure pleasure from beginning to end. Highly recommended!” –  Ann Vandermeer , Hugo winning editor of  Weird Tales  and British Fantasy Award winning publisher of Buzzcity Press “The Rebirths of Tao  is a suitably epic trilogy-capper in both scope and scale. This time, the battlefield is the whole world, with Roen once again at the center of things. If the first book is an action-adventure and the second a political thriller, the conclusion is something approaching dystopian guerrilla warfare. It still has that snarky sense of humor and the same frenetic action, but the focus has changed. In fact, it’s a book that  explores  change more than anything else.” – Barnes & Noble “I should also note that not only is  The Rebirths of Tao  jam-packed with action and espionage, it’s hilarious to boot. Chu has a great sense of humour and uses it to great effect in both breaking tension and entertaining his audience.  The Rebirths of Tao  brings a close to a very rich trilogy.”” – Every Read Thing “Every time I identify a geek who I think would appreciate a James Bond spy novel with a b-movie alien twist and a healthy amount of  Star Wars  references, I do everything I can to make sure they read this series.” –  Geeky Library “This third book was everything I’d hoped for, a wonderful end to a trilogy that has been a wildly entertaining ride from the get go. It’s funny, action-filled, and manages to tie up all the loose ends that count, while still leaving things open-ended enough for future stories set in this universe.” – The Bibliosanctum “There’s nothing better than a favorite series ending on a high note, and I’m happy to report that  The Rebirths of Tao  has accomplished just that. For those of you who have started reading the Tao books, you are in for a treat. And for those of you who haven’t, well now you have a great excuse to binge read the whole thing at once!” – Book, Bones & Buffy “This trilogy of books has been a rising curve all the way –  The Lives of Tao  made a spectacular entrance,  The Deaths of Tao  was brimming with awesome alien action, and, now,   The Rebirths of Tao  provides epic climax and wrap-up without disappointment.” – I, Fat Robot "Happily, this is a great end to the series. It’s concrete and doesn’t really leave any loose ends, but somehow also manages to leave just enough open in case Chu ever decides to continue on. This is probably one of the best books I read of the year so far, and the whole Tao trilogy has a prized spot on my shelf, just waiting to be re-read.” – Sarah Says Read “Rebirths of Tao  is the perfect closure of the trilogy, also because, as it should, expands the action and takes it on a wider setting, whilst still preserving the essential characters – humour, strong writing, adventure and intrigue – that have made the other two such as a good reading.” – The Earthian Hivemind “I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I couldn’t put it down and from the very first page, I felt like I had never left Roen and Tao for a minute. This is one of my favourite series of recent years, providing a nice blend of science fiction, spy thriller and comedy that I have yet to find anywhere else.” – Fantasy Faction “What is the best thing about Wesley Chu?  He makes reading a story about a parasitic alien race plotting to terraform the earth funny and riveting…I loved it.  Every single moment of it. No one, and I do mean no one, wants to see this series end.” – Bookish “A really solid novel, a satisfying conclusion — making the Tao trilogy a keeper. I’m very much looking forward to...
